To overcome this issue, we proposed a three-dimensional (two-dimensional + time) convolutional neural network (CNN)-based approach to predict missing CTP image frames at the end of the series from earlier acquired image frames. Moreover, we evaluated three strategies for predicting multiple time points. Seventy-two CTP scans with 89 frames and eight slices from a publicly available dataset were used to train and test the CNN models capable of predicting the last 10 image frames. The prediction strategies were single-shot prediction, recursive multi-step prediction, and direct-recursive hybrid prediction.Single-shot prediction predicted all frames simultaneously, while recursive multi-step prediction used prior predictions as input for subsequent steps, and direct-recursive hybrid prediction employed separate models for each step with prior predictions as input for the next step. The accuracies of the predicted image frames were evaluated in terms of image quality, bolus shape, and clinical perfusion parameters. We found that the image quality metrics were superior when multiple CTP images were predicted simultaneously rather than recursively. The bolus shape also showed the highest correlation (r = 0.990, p < 0.001) and the lowest variance (95% confidence interval, -453.26-445.53) in the single-shot prediction. For all perfusion parameters, the single-shot prediction had the smallest absolute differences from ground truth. Our proposed approach can potentially minimize time truncation errors and support the accurate quantification of ischemic stroke.</p>","PeriodicalId":46252,"journal":{"name":"Radiological Physics and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141301853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
